Sumario:The radiation constraint for the design and conception of LHC controls systems is described. One of the criteria when selecting electronic components is their radiation tolerance. Complete control systems are designed to operate reliable even when data is occasionally being corrupted by high energetic particles. Radiation also has an impact on the architecture, layout and integration of a control system. Finally, development costs, system functionality, reliability and the overall life span of a radiation tolerant control system are discussed.
